MAFMA Training and Tutorials

The Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance's (DCAMM's) MAFMA program coordinates training opportunities for facilities personnel throughout the state.

MAFMA University

Each year we offer a curriculum of informative subjects covering the “best practices” on facility operations and maintenance. In these tight fiscal times, this is an excellent opportunity for you to "hone your skills" and/or assist your staff. And for MAFMA members there is no charge to your agency or facility.

MAFMA members are encouraged to notify DCAMM about training programs that they recommend or which appear to be worth pursuing. 

Please contact Tom Tagan for further information.
